Noah finally falling asleep on my chest. He's still there, fwiw.

Conservative atheists now have their own symbol....

The square root of two is an irrational number. When the ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras realised this, he resolved that it should be kept a secret because if hoi poloi (the common people) came to know it, they would stop believing that the world was divinely created on a rational design. The butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker would run amok. It would mean the end of civilization. So this genuine secret was kept by and among philosophers and mathematicians for hundreds of years.

We use the symbol in our logo as an immediate indication that we do not believe the world was created by a divine intelligence.

Huh. I didn't know that. That's kinda' cool.

What's a 'conservative' athiest?

What's a 'conservative' athiest?

Atheists who like Bush. And Ann Coulter. Despite her horrible book on religion.

Someone who doesn't think ann coulter is Satan's bridesmaid, not only because they don't think she's evil, but also because there is no Satan.

Or you know, Ayn Rand seems like a conservative atheist.

Tell me the last thing that made you smile?

Just getting all my cat care ducks in a row for next week when I'll be in Vegas. (And not having to board the diabetic kitty because my friends are awesome about giving him his shots!)

Please stop talking about people who like Ann Coulter. It makes my heart hurt.

Tell me the last thing that made you smile?

Matilda shifting from groggy to fully awake, seeing my face, breaking into a huge smile, and grabbing my cheeks so she could pull my face down and eat it with glee this morning at a little after 7.

I've smiled some "Hi, hello, how are you?" smiles at work since then, but those are all polite social smiles. The baby-eating-my-face smile was the real thing.

It would have to be magic sex with no touching. And I would not be required to do anything.

People in my meeting, the projector thinks it's a second monitor. But why listen to me? Let's just stare at irrelevant menus for a bit.

Tell me the last thing that made you smile?

Sara leading Lucy (the dog) around the house on a leash. That and finding Oreo Cookie ice cream in the freezer.

Okay, that part actually made me squeal in delight.

Please stop talking about people who like Ann Coulter. It makes my heart hurt.

You probably don't want to read their review of Ann's book, Godless, then....
